Zoe Kazan and Adrian Grenier Among Talent Cast in Netflix Limited Thriller Series CLICKBAIT
Zoe Kazan (The Big Sick), Betty Gabriel (Get Out), Adrian Grenier (Entourage), and Phoenix Raei (The Heights) have joined the upcoming thriller limited series Clickbait at Netflix. The 8-episode story will be directed by Brad Anderson (The Machinist, Fringe), and co-written by newcomer Christian White and Tony Ayres (Glitch).
Deadline provided the following story and character descriptions:
Clickbait explores the ways in which our most dangerous and uncontrolled impulses are fueled in the age of social media and reveals the ever widening fractures we find between our virtual and real-life personas.
Kazan will play Pia Brewer, a young woman desperate for answers in the search for her missing brother — a case that has become a media sensation.
Gabriel will portray Sophie Brewer, an Oakland woman struggling to keep her family together as they become the subject of the biggest media story in the nation.
Grenier will play Nick Brewer, who has a seemingly perfect life: loving wife, two sons, beautiful home. His life is derailed when he becomes a part of this bizarre crime.
Raei will portray Roshan Amir, a detective with the Oakland Police Department who finds himself at the center of a media storm as he investigates this case.
Principal photography has begun in Melbourne, Australia. Hopefully, we will get to see this limited series on Netflix by the end of 2020, but if not, then 2021. Does this sound like an interesting story to you?
